Sir, in my opinion, it's like going two steps forward and four backward. There's no better system than where there is coexistence of differences (unity in diversity), where there are checks and balances. 'Unity in uniformity' as we are trying to be creates hypocrisy and simulated politics because only the powerful claim to have the monopoly of truth and wisdom and the rest have only to 'bury their heads in sand' - to live ostrich spirituality. But in political pluralism every person gets space to air their views. The danger I see is to move away from having a more predictable system to the unpredictable one, which depends not on the will of the people, but on the will of the ruling class. T Magobe.

Are we Tanzanians incubating a paradigm shift in political science?Tafakari!CDNKassala
